These young lads, under twelve years old, did a splendid job, and are to be commended, not only on the ex- tent of their contribution, but also on the spirit of helping others which prompted it. They lived, well and truly, in accordance with the finest traditions of their organiza- tion. Their action, however. suggests that other bodies throughout the rural districts might follow their example, and help to " feed the needy families of the city. In the country, fruit and vegetables are going to waste, are rotting on the ground because of over-production, because the supply is greater than the demand of the available market. Yet, at the same time, hundreds in the cities are unable to buy sufficient food for their families, This provides an opportunity for a demonstration of sym- pathy on the part of those with surplus supplies of foodstuffs, and while they, too, Kave been hard hit in some ways by the economic conditions, they are in the for- tunate position that food, at least, is plenti- ful. We cite the example of the boys of Newcastle as an indication of what can be done, in the hope that it will find an echo in similar action in other parts of the rural community surrounding Oshawa. A Justifiable Protest .. ~The mayor of Kitchener, Ontario, has been writing letters to the press and giv- ing interviews, strongly criticizing the On- tario provincial government for its appar- ent lack of interest in the plight of the un. employed in the cities of the province. In our opinion, the Kitchener mayor's point is + well taken, and his protest is justifiable. In fact, The Times has for some time been pointing out that the governments, provin- cial and federal, seem to care nothing about the unemployed situation which ex- ists in many communities, and are content to let things drift along, without taking any action to do their share towarls reliev- ing conditions. In the case of Oshawa, the situation is éxactly the same as in Kitchener. The city council has been ready for weeks fonths, perhaps, to go ahead with relief work, but has been waiting for the govern- ments to approve of its plans, and to an- nounce what share of the burden they are yoing to bear. One hardly cares to make he bold statement that the governments are entirely callous as to the sufferings and rdships of the unemployed men and their milies, but what else is one to think un- der the circumstances. On August 3, Roy- al assent was given to the federal measure émpowering the government to go as far 4s it wished in unemployment relief. In the intervening seven weeks, surely there Ras been sufficient time to formulate a pol- ey and issue instructions to the municipal ities to go ahead. It took the government of 1914 less than 24 hours to get action hen war was declared. Why, then, uld it take so long for the government 1931 to get into action with plans for re- lieving the unemployment situation? : Relief Expenditures and Waste , . The Financial Times is of the opinion the expenditure of money by munici- : 5s on enterprises which may not he ' gbne on with in normal times, in the name "of unemployment relief, constitutes a sign post to waste and weakening of municipal credit system. A he Post Says: "One of the unfortunate features of the colossal programme of pub- lic works expenditure that has been under- : er in Canada a for the relief of unemploy- 'ment is the fact that many millions of dol- ars are to be spent on public 'works of d btful value. The lists of undertakings 'that are Mow being drawn up by the vari- municipalities include many enterprises . that would not have been gone ahead with by these municipalities in normal, prosper- is times. But because the Federal Gov- ent is paying a portion of the cost the 'municipalities feel that this is a good time 0 get these jobs done and so they are un- (ert ring works hat are decidedly in the duxury class merely to create jobs, The final 2 seh expenditures will be to pate more unemployment in the country -- hay b 9 fe through the restriction of public credit and the increase of the ultimate tax rate, than can possibly be relieved at the moment. Today money is available only to borrowers with the very highest credit, and this ap- plies equally to public bodies and private in- dividuals and corporations, require to be mindful of the fact that their credit is something which they must pro- tect, Expenditures should be confined to useful purposes, even when those expendi- tures are undertaken to provide jobs. Jf money is wasted in connection with these relief expenditures we shall pile up bur- dens for the future that will fall directly upon the mass of the people including those who think they are obtaining temporary benefit. We are now putting our shoulders to the wheel to see that no one suffers dis- tress in Canada as a result of economie con- ditions but in doing so we should see that every'cent appropriated is spent after care- ful economic analysis of its real worth. No one begrudges a policy of public works and unemployment relief but those who have hopes for Canada's future trust that the policy will not lead us into extravagant, wasteful habits or uneconomic distribution of the relief funds." : Editorial Notes In spite of what New York says, Cana- dians are satisfied that their dollar is just as good as that of Uncle Sam. He now an Pity the poor newspaper man, has 46 sub-divisions to look after in Oshawa election, instead of 17. Nevertheless, 46 polling sub-divisions will provide a great deal more employment, for one day, than was possible with only 17. China has asked the League of Nations to deal with Japan. Here is an opportunity for the League to show its power. The average man, reading about the incidents in China, thinks that Japan needs a thor- ough spanking. Oshawa's unemployed have shown com- mendable patienhe in their long wait for action on the part of the provincial and federal governments. Other Editor's Comments THE NEXT GENERAL ELECTION (London News-Chronicle) Before the Government which is to save us is a fortnight old, we sec certain of its members serious ly proposing to dissolve it at the end of another month, and then to plunge the country into an ex cited and confused election con the subject which, above all, most divides it--an election in which two thirds of the present combination will be trying to extinguish the other third, while their joint plan for re-establishing credit is cxposed to the united attack of the Labour Party and all others who may dislike its proposals without understanding their necessity. It is incredible that men of sense should imagine that confidence can be restored this way THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT--AND AFTER (J. L. Garvin in the London Observer) As matters now stand, the Unionist must fight for the full policy of Protection and Imperial Pre- ference, They must fight as they have never fought. In that cause, which is the very soul of their conviction, they must organize without the loss of a day. They have no option, When the class war campaigners are about to work day and night for the triumph they expect, it would be fatal for the Unionist Party to be idle in constituencies because the energies of most of its leaders are fet- tered necessarily by their membership of th pres- ent imperfect and fugitive kind of National Govern+ ment..., Nothing but the eventual alliance between Unionism and Liberalism can create a decisive maj- ority of the country against the spirit of class war Sooner or later a National Government in the greater sense will have to come, no matter what may be the immediate results of the fateful gengr- ul election now in sight "BITS OF HUMOR Influer their for yours, ce is when you speak to other people fot good.
